| [Rudaw] Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... faceless myrmidons claimed to have killed a member of the Kurdish security forces who was one of five people seized by the jihadists near Makhmour on Saturday. The krazed killer group released a photograph on Tuesday purportedly showing Bazhdar Safar Mohammed. Safar and four others had gone "to search for desert truffles" near Ali Rash village, close to Mount Qarachogh, Rashad Galali, head of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK)’s office in Makhmour told Rudaw on Wednesday after he met with the four who were freed. The five were captured by ISIS faceless myrmidons who then "took them to a nearby cave in Ali Rash village, grilling them with questions for four hours," Galali said, recalling the account of the four who had been released. Safar was the only one of the five who had a smart phone. The faceless myrmidons checked his phone and saw photos of Safar in uniform. "After investigation, ISIS released four of them, but they decided to keep Bazhdar Safar after checking his mobile and seeing photos of him in Asayesh [security] uniform," said Galali. They believe Safar was killed on or near Mount Qarachogh. The body has not been recovered. Nashir, an ISIS-linked outlet, published a photo on its Telegram account on Tuesday purportedly showing Safar just before he was killed. Safar was a member of PUK’s Asayesh forces and a law student at Kirkuk University, according to Galali. |
